- Filkins Fabric Company is considering the replacement of its old, fully depreciated knitting machine. Two new models are available: Machine 190-3, which has a cost of $190,000, a 3-year expected life, and after-tax cash flows (labor savings and depreciation) of $87,000 per year; and Machine 360-6, which has a cost of $360,000, a 6-year life, and after-tax cash flows of $98,300 per year. Knitting machine prices are not expected to rise because inflation will be offset by cheaper components (microprocessors) used in the machines. Assume that Filkins’ cost of capital is 14%. Should the firm replace its old knitting machine? If so, which new machine should it use? By how much would the value of the company increase if it accepted the better machine? What is the equivalent annual annuity for each machine?arrow_forwardDauten is offered a replacement machine which has a cost of 8,000, an estimated useful life of 6 years, and an estimated salvage value of 800. The replacement machine is eligible for 100% bonus depreciation at the time of purchase- The replacement machine would permit an output expansion, so sales would rise by 1,000 per year; even so, the new machines much greater efficiency would cause operating expenses to decline by 1,500 per year The new machine would require that inventories be increased by 2,000, but accounts payable would simultaneously increase by 500.

- A surface mount PCB placement/soldering line is to be installed for $1.6 million. It will have a salvage value of $100,000 after 5 years. Determine the depreciation deduction and the resulting unrecovered investment during each year of the asset’s life. Use declining balance depreciation with a rate that ensures the book value equals the salvage value.arrow_forwardThe table given below lists the relevant cost items for a specific system purchase. The operating expenses for the new system are $10,000 per year, and the useful life of the system is expected to be five years. The salvage value for depreciation purposes is equal to 25% of the hardware cost. Cost Item Cost Hardware $160,000 Training $15,000 Installation $15,000 a) What is the Book Value (BV) of the device at the end of year three if the Straight Line (SL) depreciation method is used? b) Suppose that after depreciating the device for two years with the SL method, the firm decides to switch to the double declining balance depreciation method for the remainder of the device's life (the remaining three years). What is the device's BV at the end of four years?arrow_forwardTwo techniques can be used to produce expansion anchors. Technique A costs $90,000 initially and will have a $12,000 salvage value after 3 years. The operating cost with this method will be $33,000 in year 1, increasing by $2600 each year. Technique B will have a first cost of $113,000, an operating cost of $7000 in year 1, increasing by $7000 each year,and a $43,000 salvage value after its 3-year life. At an interest rate of 13% per year, which technique should be used on the basis of a present worth analysis? Notice that there are no revenues.
